Specialty Vision Solutions
Not every eye can be successfully fit with a standard soft contact lens. When traditional contact lenses don't provide the vision, comfort, or fit you deserve, specialty contact lenses can often offer a life-changing solution.
Rigid Gas Permeable (RGP) lenses and Scleral Contact Lenses are custom designed to provide exceptional visual clarity for patients with irregular corneas, high amounts of astigmatism, keratoconus, post-surgical corneas such as post-LASIK or post-corneal transplants, or other unique eye conditions including ocular surface disease, peripheral thinning of the cornea, or history of ocular injuries. Because these lenses maintain their shape on the eye, they can deliver sharper, more stable vision than soft lenses for many complex prescriptions.
A specialty lens fitting is a highly customized process. We use advanced diagnostic technology and detailed corneal measurements to design and fit lenses specifically for your eyes adjusting as needed to maximize vision, comfort, and long-term eye health.
Whether you've struggled with contact lenses in the past or have been told you're difficult to fit, we're committed to finding personalized solutions that help you experience your best possible vision.
Myopia management is about more than helping your child see clearly today—it's about protecting their vision for the future.
Myopia, or nearsightedness, is becoming increasingly common in children and often progresses as they grow. While stronger glasses can improve vision, they do not slow the underlying growth of the eye. As the eye continues to elongate, the risk of developing sight-threatening conditions later in life—including retinal detachment, glaucoma, myopic macular degeneration, and cataracts—increases significantly.
The good news is that today's technology allows us to do more than simply update your child's prescription. Through evidence-based myopia management, we can actively slow the progression of myopia and help reduce the long-term risks associated with high levels of nearsightedness.
At The Eye Collective, we offer two of the most advanced treatment options available:
MiSight® 1 Day daily disposable contact lenses are FDA-approved to both correct vision and slow the progression of myopia in children. These specially designed soft contact lenses provide clear vision while helping reduce excessive eye growth.
Essilor® Stellest® lenses are innovative spectacle lenses that correct nearsightedness while simultaneously slowing myopia progression. Using hundreds of precisely engineered lenslets surrounding a clear central vision zone, Stellest lenses are designed to help control eye growth while providing comfortable, everyday vision.
Every child is unique. During a comprehensive evaluation, we assess your child's vision, prescription, lifestyle, and risk factors to determine the most appropriate treatment plan. The earlier myopia management begins, the greater the opportunity to slow progression and protect your child's vision for years to come.
Living with keratoconus doesn't mean settling for poor vision. With advanced diagnostics and customized treatment options, we can help you achieve clearer, more comfortable vision while closely monitoring the health of your corneas.
Keratoconus is a progressive condition in which the cornea gradually thins and bulges into an irregular shape. As the cornea changes, vision often becomes increasingly distorted, and glasses or traditional soft contact lenses may no longer provide adequate correction. Early diagnosis and ongoing monitoring are essential to preserving vision and determining when additional treatment may be needed.
Using advanced corneal topography, we create a highly detailed map of the cornea to detect even subtle changes over time. This technology allows us to diagnose keratoconus earlier, monitor progression with precision, and collaborate with your ophthalmologist if procedures such as corneal cross-linking become appropriate.
For many patients, scleral contact lenses provide the clearest and most comfortable vision available. These custom-designed lenses vault over the irregular corneal surface, creating a smooth optical surface while maintaining a protective fluid reservoir between the lens and the eye. The result is sharper vision, improved comfort, and healthier eyes for many patients with keratoconus and other irregular corneal conditions.
Every eye is unique. Our customized approach combines advanced imaging, specialty contact lens expertise, and long-term monitoring to help you maintain the best vision and eye health possible.
